Approximation algorithms for channel allocation problems in broadcast networks
We study two packing problems that arise in the area of dissemination-based information systems; a second theme is the study of distributed approximation algorithms. The problems c...

A simpler and better derandomization of an approximation algorithm for single source rent-or-buy
We present a very simple way of derandomizing the algorithm proposed by Gupta, Kumar and Roughgarden for Single Source Rent-or-Buy by using the method of conditional expectation. ...
